Traveler reviews
Sad cancellation
Trip not guaranteed to happen and they have no contingency plan if you’re not flexible on the days … it was disappointing to say the least (as it was my birthday celebration desire) … i wish they had an alternative to cancelling…
Mad Dog made our trip...
Mad Dog made our trip such fun and very memorable, such a fabulous character with an amazing knowledge to keep us entertained. Would highly recommend the trip!
Flying High in Las Vegas
I have just returned to the UK and had to write a review, I would highly recommend this trip. It was very well organised from the start with pickup from our hotel, ending with return to our hotel. Safety was paramount and Marcus our pilot put us at ease also explaining interesting facts throughout the flight. The ranch visit was fantastic, an excellent meal serenaded by Cowboy Dave, he sang ‘Country Roads’ for me, my husband passed away last year, it was one of his favourite songs and played at his funeral, I felt he was with me. There were options to horse ride or take a wagon ride which we regret not doing now but it was lovely to walk around the ranch and meet the horses. We took our little friend Sweep along, a standing family joke and Marcus was so kind to allow a photo of him in the cockpit, it made our day! This trip was on my bucket list in retirement with my husband but sadly that was not to be but I did it for both of us. Thank you so much 5 Star helicopters.
